and yes ive searched, but its al about uneaven wear on a single axle, and thats not it.

Just wondered what the normal wear pattern is, my fronts have 1.5-2mm more wear than the rears, evenly over the tread.

Just wondered if thi9s was correct, it seems nore like a FWD wear than I was expecting from a 4x4, I thought they would wear more evenly.

Did you say your fronts have more wear than the backs, and you were going to switch them? Front to back, and back to front? If a gaylander not a good choice I do believe.
